“From Hell” is a remarkable movie starring Johnny Depp as the main investigator in 1888, London England trying to solve the murders of “ladies in waiting” at the hands of “Jack The Ripper.” Depp’s acting is interesting, intriguing and really drives this version of “The Ripper” story that is vaguely based on Alan Moore’s graphic novel. This film also stars Heather Graham plays, whom plays ‘lady of the evening’ Mary Kelly (Kelly was a real life “lady in waiting” during the real murders in London). Graham has an interesting “cleaner look” than the other actresses playing evening ladies in this film. This is not a big thing; it is just something that is a quirky observation.
Since this film is in fact derived from a graphic novel, the film offers a very unique perspective to the lore of what actually happen back in 1888 London. If a person is a really big “The Ripper” aficionado and is strict stickler to the actual facts of the original story, this film needs to be watched with a very open mind. If not watched with an open mind, this film can be a very big disappointment to the viewer. This movie will be thought provoking in some sort of way, it might even be a bit of a head scratcher during some parts, if you are on the fence about getting this movie or watching it, I say give it a shot.

A classic murder mystery gets a scandalous twist. In this film Jack The Ripper is portrayed as a man enlisted to cover up a secret from the highest level of society. Johnny Depp plays and Investigator hot on the trail. Having never read the graphic novel i cant make a comparison of book from movie. I can tell you i enjoy this movie though. These Day of the Dead SteelBooks are catching some flack. I can tell you this one looks way better than the UK version that came before it.

I wasn't expecting much from this movie. The critics passed it over rather quickly, saying a few kind words but without a strong recommendation. The couple of people I knew who saw this said that it was "good," but never cared to say much more than that and have never brought it up again. As I sat down to watch it, I thought it looked nice but moved too fast, was a little dumb. But by the end, I was astounded. I think it's one of the best films of 2001. Sure, it's a triumph of style over substance, but I think we need a couple of good films like this every year. I love this style of films.

I like when Johnny Depp goes for more dramatic stories as this one, and it's a pretty stylish take on the history of Jack The Ripper. If you're not a horror fan be prepared for quite a bit of blood, artfully done but it does get a bit gory at times. Not a huge difference between DVD and Blu-Ray but probably enough that you'll notice if you're upgrading from DVD.

More comic book horror than fact, but well done.

I bought this after having seen it once and not liking it (I was bird and decided t give it a second chance). I was glad I did because it was very well done, albeit gory in some parts. It is based more on the graphic novel than the real case files. So, expect to watch it for what it is: a horror film.

Johnny Depp is amazing. He has to be one of favorite actors. I've seen a lot of his films, but I've never seen this one. So of course I had to pick this up. one because, I've never seen it' two, because its a Steelbook.

I bought this blu-ray because my girlfriend loves this movie. It was an entertaining film, but not necessarily a great one. Heather Graham was horribly miscast, and her accent is atrocious. I think I paid $5 for it, though. So, I can't complain.

This movie is a moody atmospheric film. The Hughes brothers take the original graphic novel and make it there own with this film. The movie is enjoyable but probably does not require repeat viewings.

This movie is an older release at a great price. I think this is a a bit of a sleeper in that it didn't get the recognition it deserved when originally released. This is a good bit of filmaking here with a wonderful cast that really brings the screenplay to life. I really enjoyed this film.

I bought this movie thinking it was something completely different, the cover was changed and I didn't remember the name, I was surprised in a good way. I liked the story of Jack, kind of a different light, good movie.

The movie was a gem but part of the reason I took a chance on an impulse buy was due to cool packaging that wasn’t part of the final product for display in my collection upon opening the package

Good looking steelbook of possibly the best and most realistic re-telling of jack the ripper. Great price. Only complaint is a digital copy was NOT included.

This moody, tense, and dark thriller has fallen between the cracks, but I'm glad I found it. It was very enjoyable. Good story. Interesting characters. Great acting.
